When was Love first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1961, in Australia. One of them is Reprise Records R9-6088.
How do I tell if my copy of Love is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use R9-6088) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, R9-6088-A. and R9-6088-B..

How much is Love on vinyl worth?
